  2. Vocabulary Practice Day Two (2) Thursday November 28, 2012 Essential Question: What words in Uglies seem to be composed of Latin word parts?

  3. Root words • Affixes & Base Words • Affixes include prefixes and suffixes • Prefixes are root words that can only be found at the beginning of a word: (de-monstr-ation) • Suffixes are root words that can only be found at the end of a word: (de-monstr-ation) • Base words are root words that can be found anywhere in a word: (fer-vent), (in-fer-tile), (de-fer)

  4. English Word Origins • Germanic languages • Latin • Scandinavian languages • French • Greek

  5. English Words • Most single syllable words (like “cap” or “bent”) come from a Germanic language. • Most multiple syllable words (like “capacity” or “benevolent”) come from Latin • In other words, most big words come from Latin and most little words come from a Germanic language

  6. English Words (Continued) • You can’t really use a Latin root to figure out the meaning of a word that comes from a Germanic language

  7. Root Words (Cont.) • You have word part categories because, for pronunciation purposes, many Latin roots have more than one form • And you have root words with more than one meaning because sometimes the Latin word that the root comes from had more than one meaning

  8. Practice 1. Word part category:_______________________________ Meaning(s):_________________________________________________ Word part Category: ante, anti Meanings: before, old

  9. Practice Word:spec-vers Definition: To look at the highest point Word:max-locu Definition: To speak about something large
